What is an ICR?

An Information Collection Request (ICR) is a federal agency's request for approval from the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) to collect information from the public. Under the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA), agencies must justify why the information is needed and how it will be used.

When are they submitted?

Federal agencies are required to submit an ICR whenever they create, renew, modify an information collection. Each ICR includes a description of the collection, supporting materials and documentation (such as forms, surveys, or scripts), and proof that the agency has met the requirements of the PRA.

The ICR is submitted to the The Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs (OIRA) within OMB for review and approval. OIRA grants approval for a maximum of three years, after which the collection must be renewed through a new ICR submission.

Where to find an ICR

ICRs are publicly available on RegInfo.gov, and additional guidance can be found in the FAQs.

Note: Presidential Action influences are notated for ICRs received between January 20, 2025 and September 22, 2026.

Water Carrier Tariffs

Key Information

Abstract

While rail carriers are no longer required to file rate tariffs at the STB, a statutory requirement exists for water carriers that provide freight transportation in noncontiguous domestic trade (i.e., domestic, as opposed to international, shipments moving to or from Alaska, Hawaii, or the U.S. territories or possessions (Puerto Rico, Guam, the Virgin Islands, American Samoa, and the Northern Mariana Islands)). A tariff provides a list of prices and fees that the carrier charges to the shipping public. These tariffs may be filed electronically. The final rule will now allow water carriers to use (a) their usual business internet postings of their tariffs and (b) the filing of an annual certificate with the Board to meet their filing responsibilities.

FERC-516, Electric Rate Schedules and Tariff Filings

Key Information

Abstract

The information collected through FERC 516 is used by FERC to carry out its statutory obligations under sections 205 and 206 of the Federal Power Act (FPA) to regulate electric rates, tariffs, and jurisdictional service terms. The Commission uses these filings to evaluate proposed changes to tariffs, rates, and charges; ensure that rates remain just, reasonable, and not unduly discriminatory; and review compliance filings associated with pro forma Open Access Transmission Tariffs (OATTs), Large Generator Interconnection Agreements (LGIAs), and Small Generator Interconnection Agreements (SGIAs). The Commission conducted an in-depth review of information collections related to electric tariffs and identified several collections that were unnecessarily separated into distinct collections, as well as information collection instruments that were completed or no longer needed. The Commission proposes to consolidate these information collection activities under FERC-516, its primary electric tariff information collection, so that we can accurately reflect the burden placed on the public. In addition, the Commission is merging the burden of the temporary collections FERC-516E (Electric Rate Schedules and Tariff Filings - NAESB Standards - Electric) and FERC-516J (Project Area Labor Wage Data) into FERC-516. FERC is also renewing all of the relevant information collections to harmonize their expiration dates under FERC-516. Once the information collection activities are incorporated into FERC-516, then the Commission will discontinue the other collections as they will no longer be needed. There are no proposed changes to any of the ongoing reporting requirements; however, the collection is being updated to remove one-time collections that no longer need to be submitted.

Generic Clearance for the Collection of Qualitative Feedback on Agency Service Delivery

Key Information

Abstract

The U.S. Merit Systems Protection Board (MSPB) is seeking to reinstate a previously approved information collection in accordance with the Paperwork Reduction Act (PRA). This information collection is part of MSPB’s efforts to improve customer service delivery. The information collection instruments consist of short customer focused surveys distributed through Qualtrics, MSPB’s survey platform. Through this collection and approval process, MSPB is complying with normal clearance procedures and meeting our commitments under Executive Order 12862, “Setting Customer Service Standards” (September 11, 1993). The information collection activity will garner qualitative customer and stakeholder feedback in an efficient, timely manner, in accordance with the Administration's commitment to improving service delivery. By qualitative feedback we mean information that provides useful insights on perceptions and opinions, but are not statistical surveys that yield quantitative results that can be generalized to the population of study. This feedback will provide insights into customer or stakeholder perceptions, experiences and expectations, provide an early warning of issues with service, or focus attention on areas where communication, training or changes in operations might improve delivery of products or services. These collections will allow for ongoing, collaborative and actionable communications between MSPB and its customers and stakeholders. It will also allow feedback to contribute directly to the improvement of program management.

The Annual Report is needed to provide detailed information on how the state has met its goals and objectives of the previous fiscal year as stated in the IUP and Grant Agreement. The CWA and SDWA require this information to ensure the national accountability, adequate public review and comment, fiscal integrity, and consistent management needed to achieve public health and statutory compliance objectives.

[NCIPC] Advancing Violence Epidemiology in Real-Time (AVERT)

Key Information

Abstract

Advancing Violence Epidemiology in Real-Time (AVERT) data collection integrates, expands, and enhances previous data sharing efforts with public health departments initiated under the Firearm Injury Surveillance Through Emergency Rooms (FASTER) program, which provided funding for 12 jurisdictions to share firearm injury-related ED visit data with CDC. The goal of AVERT is to build on the FASTER program and provide funding to a minimum of 10 jurisdictions to share timely ED data for all firearm injuries (regardless of intent), other violence-related injuries, and mental health conditions. AVERT is made possible because the vast majority of the participating health departments are already rapidly collecting extensive data on ED visits in their jurisdiction and using these data for the identification of public health concerns, including flu, heat-related illness, and disaster-related health issues. This Revision includes general adjustments and a slight reduction in burden.

ICE Flight Manifest/Billing Agreement

Key Information

Abstract

OMB Circular A-126, Subject: Improving the Management and Use of Government Aircraft (May 22, 1992), requires that government agencies that fly non-official passengers in a Space Available status charge them the “full coach fare” cost of their seat on the government aircraft. Circular A-126 defines “full coach fare” as “a coach fare available to the general public between the day that the travel was planned and the day that the travel occurred.” Id. ¶ 4f. To properly bill these passengers, ICE must set up accounts receivable in the Federal Financial Management System (FFMS). Accounts receivable must be based on legally valid debts. The Flight Manifest/Billing Agreement (FM/BA) form will collect the contact information needed to send bills to these passengers from FFMS, and will document their agreement to be billed for their seats on these flights. The ICE Flight Manifest Information/Agreement To Reimburse form is used to collect information from members of the public, contractors, Federal employees, or dependents who intend to board ICE-chartered aircraft for purposes of evacuation. The purposes of the data collected on this form are two-fold. First, ICE will verify the individual’s identity before he/she boards an ICE-chartered aircraft to assess the safety of the aircraft, its crew, other passengers, and the United States. Further, the data collected on the form is also used in the event of an emergency to help ensure timely notification of points of contact designated by the passenger. Second, the form will confirm the agreement of Space Available passengers to be billed for their travel, and establish the names, addresses, and Social Security Number (SSN) or Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) for billing and collection purposes. The ICE Senior Field Official(s) at the airfield of embarkation will collect pertinent data for flight manifest information from all persons wishing to fly on an ICE-chartered aircraft prior to their boarding of the aircraft. Only passengers flying in a Space Available status, that is, private persons not on official government travel orders, will be required to complete the relevant fields on the form stating the reason for Space Available travel and requesting their signature to document their agreement to be billed for their travel. In special emergency situations, the form may be completed in-flight. The ICE Senior Field Official(s) will then submit the completed forms and the flight manifest to the program office that chartered the flight and to the Emergency Management Unit via email, as soon as practicable upon completion of the flight.

Educational Opportunity Centers Program (EOC) Annual Performance Report

Key Information

Abstract

The Department of Education (ED) collects Annual Performance Reports (APRs) from Educational Opportunity Centers (EOC) grantees under the authority of Title IV, Part A, Subpart 2, Division 1, Sections 402A and 402B of the Higher Education Act of 1965, as amended, the program regulations in 34 CFR 644, and the Education Department General Administrative Regulations (EDGAR), in 34 CFR 74.51, 75.720, and 75.732. The information that grantees submit in their APRs allows ED to annually assess each grantee's progress in meeting their project's approved goals and objectives. The APR data that grantees submit are compared with the projects' approved objectives to determine the projects' accomplishments, to make decisions regarding whether funding should be continued, and to award "prior experience" points. The regulations for this program provide for awarding up to 15 points for prior experience (34 CR 644.22). During a competition for new grant awards, the prior experience points are added to the average of the peer reviewers' scores to arrive at a total score for each application. Funding recommendations and decisions are primarily based on the rank order of applications on the slate; therefore, assessment of prior experience points, based on data in the annual performance report, is a crucial part of the overall application process. Further, this performance report form is the main source of data for the Department's response to the requirements of the Government Performance and Results Act (GPRA) for this program. In addition, the Department uses the annual performance reports to produce program level data for annual reporting, budget submissions to OMB, Congressional hearings and inquiries, and responding to inquiries from higher education interest groups and the general public. EOC APRs are prepared and submitted by EOC grant projects. For each EOC grant project, the grant project director of record completes, or supervises the completion of the data submission process. The grant project director supervises the administration of an EOC grant. An EOC grant provides counseling and information on college admissions to qualified adults who want to enter or continue a program of postsecondary education. The program also provides services to improve the financial and economic literacy of participants. An important objective of the program is to counsel participants on financial aid options, including basic financial planning skills, and to assist in the application process. The goal of the EOC program is to increase the number of adult participants who enroll in postsecondary education institutions.

Foreign Purchaser Acknowledgment Statement of Unregistered Pesticides (Renewal)

Key Information

Abstract

This ICR addresses the information collection activities associated with the mandate in section 17(a)(2) of the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act (FIFRA), which requires an exporter of any pesticide not registered under FIFRA section 3 or sold under FIFRA section 6(a)(1) to obtain a signed statement from the foreign purchaser acknowledging that the purchaser is aware that the pesticide is not registered for use in, and cannot be sold in, the United States. A copy of this statement, which is known as the Foreign Purchaser Acknowledgement Statement, or FPAS, must be transmitted by EPA to the Designated National Authority or appropriate official of the government in the importing country. This information is submitted to EPA via mail or electronically through the Central Data Exchange (CDX) in the form of annual or per-shipment statements. EPA maintains original records and transmits copies, along with an explanatory letter, via email to appropriate government officials of the countries that are importing the pesticide. In addition to the export notification for unregistered pesticides, FIFRA requires that all exported pesticides include appropriate labeling. There are different requirements for registered and unregistered products. The export labeling requirements meet the definition of third-party notification. This ICR includes burden estimates for the FPAS requirement for unregistered pesticides, as well as the labeling requirement for all exported pesticides, both registered and unregistered. The burden estimates for export labeling requirements have been consolidated in this ICR since the implementation of the 1993 pesticide export policy governing the export of pesticides, devices, and active ingredients used in producing pesticides, codified in 40 CFR part 168, subpart D.
